I hear that the Italians are threatening to put their manager and trainer on trial when they return from Japan! The press are all furious and baying for blood. Maybe the whole team should defect to a friendly country!

I suppose the Italian side could apply for Scottish citizenship. At least they got to the Finals.

I still think that South Korea & Senegall are forces to be reckoned with.

They are no

Hs it really been 27 hours without football.

Wonder how the papers will posssible manage to fill their 8 page world cup suppements tomorrow.

On second thought I'd better think of that it'll be England this, 1970 that, Banks V Seaman, Pele v Rivaldo, I can see it all now.

2 - 1 to Brazil

Hard Luck England

Never Mind

*raises a to the English*
That's the luck of the draw, England could probably have beaten any of the other six teams in the competition.

(Nips in for half-time during Brazil v Turkey)

Excellent game so far, even if it is 0-0! I'm beginning to suspect that another shock might be brewing...
